'In his brilliant new book, Edd shows that French baking needn't be daunting. He turns 70-plus classics into achievable home bakes, channelling his lifelong love of Paris' posh patisseries. Add enticing photography into the mix and it's a visual, as well as culinary, treat.' -- Delicious magazine

'Edd Kimber reveals the secrets of the Parisian pastry shop, with step-by-step instructions to take the fear out of French classics like cherry clafoutis, éclairs and seasonal favourites like Buche de Noël.'-- Country Living

'The word patisserie make us think of impossibly complicated recipes that can only be carried out by the most talented pastry chefs, but Edd Kimber wants to change that. With step-by-step photos for pastries and icings, it's easy to get your head around the more complex techniques, and the fantastic photography of bright, multi-layered cakes looks beautiful. You'll be a contestant on Great British Bake Off in no time!' -- Great British Food magazine

'Professional recipes can often be really complicated and impractical in a domestic kitchen, so it's brilliant that Edd Kimber has researched, simplified and brought them together in this beautiful book. It's on my list!'-- BBC Good Food magazine

Patisserie Made Simple was a complete labour of love. I spent a year and a half working on the recipes as I travelled around France exploring the country and looking for new recipes and stories about the classics.

French baking has a reputation for being difficult to make at home and I wanted to break this illusion by making the recipes a little simpler and design them for the home baker. This means that where possible ingredients are available from the supermarket and equipment is the sort a home bakers kitchen might already have. The book includes simpler recipes like Chocolate Sables and Financiers and works all the way up to recipes like the classic Gateau St Honore, something for all skill levels.

I am very pleased to say that book was chosen as one of the best cookbooks of 2014 by BBC Good Food, Delicious, Sainsburys Magazine, Waitrose Magazine and Good to Know
